The redistricting effort in Onondaga County has bounced around the county Legislature for several weeks now, but any redrawn lines that are approved will be here to stay for a decade.

Last month, County Executive Ryan McMahon vetoed a redistricting map proposed by the Legislature.

On Tuesday, three new maps came before the Legislature for a vote. Before voting, members of the public had a chance to voice their opinions.

Several community members said they were concerned about the process moving along too quickly.

Due to Census data coming to the Legislature six months behind schedule, the map drawing period was cut short. An extension to the redrawing process was voted down Tuesday afternoon.

“If we had more time, we wouldn’t have had to vote on any of these maps," county Legislator Chris Ryan said. "We could have sent it back, got a new commission, we could have got other people to draw them. We could have came to a broader consensus, but it's OK.”

In the end, a new map - "number four" - was approved by legislators.

Many community members echoed concerns about District 16, which played a part in McMahon’s veto.

Minority community members currently make up a majority of voters in the district.

“With map number four, we actually got that number up to 48% of the whole district is African American, which, by far, make them the largest individual group within the district,” Onondaga County Legislature Chairman David Knapp said.

Tuesday concluded the county’s eighth public hearing on the redistricting process.
